A lot will depend on the routes you want to travel and when. Business class awards can be hard to get. Some airlines have awards available from ~353 days and others start 330 days out. But awards can become available at any time (or never).
The AA forum has dedicated threads on AA partner awards. You will have similar problems to posts those in threads. Problems with availability are common
What approximate routes are you wanting? Will need to be very flexible with routes & dates.
